Yeah, I've fiddled with DW from way back, and got sick of it. The reason isn't specific to DW, it's just that very little of what I care about in CF has to do with visuals. You do a visual edit of a CF page and you see this insane amount of funky little icons all over the screen where CF tags are. It ain't WYSIWIG, and it ain't text. It's just a blob of junk, IMHO. Too chaotic looking.
I really do like seeing code as text, in a nice linear fashion. Hit the "Preview" button when necessary. I think it sort of jives with the whole MVC (I tell you, the Illuminati comes up with a fad term every quarter. Last quarter it was "FLiP"). Isolate the presentation from the business logic. I'm trying to D/L my copy of CFMX now, and I think our proxy server/firewall is saying "No Way, Jo-Se" to me. Gonna have to get our network admin to help out. Of course, IMHO, for a nice text editor, I think Ultra-Edit32 is 'da bomb'. > -----Original Message----- > From: Kay Smoljak [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, June 05, 2002 8:28 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: DM MX Find and Replace > > Think of DWMX as a visual editor with *kick-ass* code editing features. > Maybe when it grows up it can claim the reverse as well.
